Happy Birthday to the Cat in the Hat

Yes, today marks the birthday of Dr. Seuss. Whether you like “Green Eggs and Ham,” “You’re Only Old Once,” “How the Grinch Stole Christmas, “Oh, the Places You’ll Go,” or any of his other delightful works of whimsy, ’tis a day worth noting… at least, for me it is.

“Today you are you! That is truer than true!

There is no one alive who is you-er than you!

— Dr. Seuss (Theodor Seuss Geisel); March 2, 1904 – September 24, 1991

American children’s author, illustrator, and political cartoonist
